Least $$$ open air 50s Porsche you can find.

1958 Desoto Firemite.
74 inches long, 33 inches wide and 19 inches tall; 29 inches if you count the windshield. The engine was a two-horsepower Briggs and Stratton type 6-B; an opening deck lid allowed one to put gas in and start it. There was a kill switch on the rear quarter and another on the dash. The frame was all steel and had a 44 7⁄8-inch wheelbase with two-inch road clearance, and the 10 x 2.75-inch whitewall tires rode on ball bearing rims. Headlamps, horn and two tail lamps per side were run by a pair of six-volt hotshot batteries.

That tractor is pretty rough. Mismatched front end and other aftermarket parts.

Which one? Looks like a couple of different tractors to me.

Plus it looks as if there are a few really nice, like new other tractors in the background.

Little information even I managed to find on the tractor Porsche. The model Porsche standard chronology is 1950, 2 cylinders, 35 horsepower. Maybe I should call to find out the price




The other tractor is Porsche Junior B 108 C, dated 1955, one cylinder and selling price 2500 euro.




Eventually searching I found some old Unimog 411. The chronology is 1958.
I like this model !!!







Chronology 1960

This Unimog is in the city where I live. I do not know if model 401 or model 411. As I see is convertible. I need to look to find the owner for the date of the model.
